Enter For FreeCharley Harper was an incredible artist who drew nature from a different perspective. His use of simple lines and two dimensions is crazy good. The simplicity of his art somehow manages to capture the incredible complexity of nature. Blows my mind.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?It would definitely say that I need to save the money and be patient to be able to afford an incredible artist to bring my ideas to life. Unfortunately, I have yet to get a tattoo that I don't regret waiting for. I'd love to have these beautiful pieces of art that I dream of having. I try to keep in mind that even though they aren't exactly what I may have wanted, they do represent who I have been, who I am and who I hope to be. It's kinda like life. You have to embrace the good with the bad
What would you do with the $25,000?Besides dream tattoos? I'm 51 and have been a struggling musician since I was a teen. I'd love to use the money to record a proper album and to outfit my tiny studio so I can record younger musicians who are looking for a break. Building community is what I want my legacy to be.
